Fresh from an impressive victory in March, Igorot mixed martial arts fighter Jomar Pa-ac will be back in action in June as he takes on an undefeated American opponent in Fury Fighting Championship 91 in Houston, Texas.
Information has it that the flyweight bout between Pa-ac and Nick Piccininni will be the main event of the fight night.
Pa-ac made his presence felt in the MMA community overseas following his submission victory via guillotine choke against Shoijin Miki in one of the main cards of Fury FC 87 also in Houston in March.
Pa-ac is taking his training seriously as Piccininni is a known wrestler and grappler with three of his four MMA wins came by way of submission via arm triangle and rear naked choke.
The fighting pride of Bauko, Mountain Province was the more aggressive fighter, as he kept Shojin Miki at bay, landing leg kicks against his opponent.
Soon as Pa-ac landed a solid left on the body of Miki, the American went for a clinch but it was the perfect opportunity for the Igorot fighter to go for a guillotine choke.
Pa-ac has improved his MMA record to seven wins with two losses.
Fury FC is the official partner of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in the southern part of United States on UFC Fight Pass.
Before migrating to the U.S., Pa-ac has represented the Philippines through the famed Team Lakay in the Bahrain-based Brave Combat Federation where he had three wins and one loss record.
Pa-ac also saw action in two other promotions since he started to compete in MMA in 2015.
